From the foregoing it will be readily unsliilled irLthe art that with my improved attachment, I am enabled to cause vaporization of the explosive mix ture at; the carbureterflischarge nozzle and also, to cause the breaking of the minute e raising of the temperature of the same. Further", condensation of the heavier hydrocarbons upon the walls of the intake manifold will be, prevented. due to thefact that the temperature of the same is materially raised. IManifestly, the construction shown is ca,-
